Operation
Note:
Determine the left and right sides of the
machine from the normal operating position.
Think Safety First
Please carefully read all of the safety instructions and
decals in the safety section. Knowing this information
could help you, your family, pets or bystanders avoid
injury.
Mowing on wet grass or steep slopes can cause
sliding and loss of control.
Wheels dropping over edges can cause rollovers,
which may result in serious injury, death or
drowning.
To avoid loss of control and possibility of
rollover:
•
Do not mow near drop-offs or near water.
•
Do not mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
•
Reduce speed and use extreme caution on
slopes.
•
Avoid sudden turns or rapid speed changes.

Recommended Fuel
Use
Unleaded
Regular Gasoline suitable for
automotive use (87 pump octane minimum). Leaded
regular gasoline may be used if unleaded regular is not
available.
Important:
Never use methanol, gasoline
containing methanol, or gasohol containing more
than 10% ethanol because the fuel system could be
damaged. Do not mix oil with gasoline.
In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive. A fire or
explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others and can damage property.
•
Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area,
when the engine is cold. Wipe up any
gasoline that spills.
•
Never fill the fuel tank inside an enclosed
trailer.
•
Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
gasoline to the fuel tank until the body of
the tank is full but fuel does not fill the neck
of the tank. This empty space in the tank
allows gasoline to expand.
•
Never smoke when handling gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where
gasoline fumes may be ignited by a spark.
•
Store gasoline in an approved container and
keep it out of the reach of children. Never
buy more than a 30-day supply of gasoline.
•
Do not operate without entire exhaust
system in place and in proper working
condition.
